For hr & recruiters

New NZ companies need their first hire - reach them before they post a job ad

A new company just incorporated. The founders haven't set up employment contracts, health and safety frameworks, payroll systems, or an onboarding process. And they will need to hire. FreshFirms puts them in your feed the week they exist.

FreshFirms monitors the public NZ Companies Register every weekday and delivers newly-registered companies to your inbox - with director names, business type, suburb and registration date. New companies are the ideal recruitment and HR prospect: they have no incumbent supplier, no established processes, and immediate needs for employment agreements, HR policy frameworks, compliance setup, and eventually their first recruit.

Many NZ businesses place their first hire within 60-90 days of incorporating. HR consultants who make contact in the first month - offering a free employment agreement template or a quick chat about hiring for the first time - build relationships that turn into retained searches, executive hiring and ongoing HR advisory work.

Choose your region and cadence, and on Pro filter by the industries where your firm specialises - trades and construction, tech, professional services or hospitality. Be the agency on the director's shortlist before they even know they need one.

FAQ

What do new companies need from HR and recruitment firms?

Employment agreements, health and safety frameworks, payroll setup, their first hire, and ongoing HR advisory work as they grow.

Why reach out so early?

Founders have no incumbent HR supplier and face employment law compliance from day one. Early contact positions you as their default go-to before any competitor gets in the door.

Can I filter by industry?

Yes, on Pro - filter to trades, hospitality, tech or professional services depending on where your placement expertise lies.

Where does the data come from?

The public NZ Companies Register and the NZBN service, operated by MBIE. Updated every weekday.
